Which statement best describes the Americans with Disabilities Act?

The ADA prohibits employers from discriminating against qualified applicants and employees because of disability. Employers should select the most qualified applicant without regard to disability and provide reasonable accommodations when required, unless doing so would cause undue hardship. It does not require preferential treatment or every requested accommodation, and its employment provisions generally apply to employers with 15 or more employees—not five.
